Makikiride dito sa "Welcome to the inip Club" . Waiting na din kme for grant. Malayo layo pa whooh.
Sa mga waiting ano po ang mga pinagkakaabalahan niyo, aside from work ? Do you travel ba para aside from grant eh may nilolookforward pa kayo or focus lang to save ?
I know wala nmn tayo magagwa kung hindi maghintay, talaga haha but do you have tips to stay patient while waiting ?

Ako, hindi ako patient eh. Physically active ako pero iba yung dating sa akin ng waiting game na to, siguro depende din sa current situations natin sa buhay. Tamang travel and save (importanter) ginawa ko. Kasi isang braincell nalang yung nakakapit para hindi ako mabaliw nang tuluyan. 😆
Hindi ako nagmamadali pero ang tagal talaga ng naging waiting time for invite and grant. Meron nga di ba, nauna pa sila ma PR sa ibang bansa kesa sa aus. Ito yung sinasabi ko na a few major life decisions may be held off by this.
Sa case ko na pinili talaga ang australia, kapit pa malala. Step by da step sana sumakses na din. HAHA

Pinagka abalahan ko nung naghihintay kmi ng grant is… mag overthink hahaha! Jk. Try to book a travel po, it will help with the overthinking at inip. Meron din kayo nilolook forward kahit papano. Ang advise din ng mga nasa Pinas is be with friends and family. Sulitin na oras kasi once nandyan na grant, lapit na alis nyo.
